"Prayer Flags of Nepal" is a deeply relaxing series of smartphone APPs, computer downloads and a DVD that act as "visual meditations" to soothe away the stresses of life.
Shot on location in Nepal and set to atmospheric music, these professionally filmed images will restore and revive your Himalayan spirit. Here is a sample of what the films look and sound like.

Sunrise in the Himalayas begins amid thousands of prayer flags fluttering in the
morning breeze. These dancing prayer flags form a tangible link between the Himalayas
and Buddhism and reveal the magic spirit of the "the roof of the world."
A 7th Century statue of Buddha carved from a single black stone looks down on young
monks whose laser-like focus helps them perfect their delicate Tibetan calligraphy.
Like generations before him, a patient stonecutter chisels the traditional Tibetan prayer,
"Om Mani Padme Hum" for another section of a "Mani" wall. We see candles lit in
remembrance of loved ones, and the meditation comes to a close with the rising of a
full moon over the sacred Boudhanath stupa.

Take a deep breath and embark on a visual journey among the prayer flags of the
Himalayas. These images will enable your mind to calm as you walk the higher trails of
the Himalayas where prayer flags are interspersed with prayer wheels and "Mani"
walls: all conveying the traditional Buddhist prayer, "Om Mani Padme Hum."

In the Buddhist communities of Nepal, prayers are offered by turning prayer wheels as
well as by flying traditional prayer flags. Prayer wheels contain thousands of prayers
which intensify the universal Buddhist mantra markings on the outside: "Om Mani Padme Hum."
Prayer wheels can be spun by hand, water, hot air or the wind. "Himalayan Vision"
generates a sense of peace and calm ending with the close of day at the holy site of
Swayambhunath, Nepal.

Alive with the vibrancy of texture, color and design that is intrinsic to Tibetan Buddhist meditation,
"Himalayan Art" highlights world-class statues, unusual chalk folk-art at Losar (the Tibetan New Year)
and students painting sacred thangkas (a Nepali art form exported to Tibet in the 11th Century A.D.)
Look over the shoulder of master Tibetan artist Buchung Nubgya as he works his magic on painting
decorative molding for a Tibetan monastery. Set to a background of traditional prayer flags,
this film provides a colorful visual meditation.

Thousands of prayer flags surround the sacred site where Lord Gautama Buddha was
born in Lumbini, Nepal. A large white memorial building marks the exact spot of
Lord Buddha's birth. The morning fog floats across this jungle setting, while a
thunderstorm moves in from the foothills of the Himalayas. Join the pilgrims at
Ashoka the Great's pillar erected in 245 BC to honor Buddha. Experience the awe
and stillness of this holy place where meditation is in the air.

According to Eastern tradition (Hinduism and Buddhism) the seven chakras are the body's key energy centers.
This film pairs each chakra with the Tibetan pronunciation of OM (A-U-M), and its corresponding musical note sung by monks.
Concentrating on each chakra in succession can rebalance both body and spirit.

Relax, and let the beauty of Himalayan prayer flags help reset your seven chakras.
You are encouraged to chant with the monks and to visualize light around each chakra in the appropriate color (moving clockwise around each chakra).

Participate in contemplative Himalayan traditions beginning with the mantra with
which Buddhist communities start the day. Hear a yak herder playing a wooden flute
against a background of fluttering prayer flags in the morning light. Includes the
meditative sounds of singing bowls, and footage of the holy stupas of Kathmandu:
Boudhanath and Swayambhunath. The classic Tibetan prayer "Om Mani Padme Hum" is sung
by a Tibetan/Tsumba (a resident of the hidden Tsum Valley in Nepal).
